The Boomerang Effect!

The person who barks out negative forces over other people's lives is typically someone battling those forces within themself. Labeling and branding people like that is not what Christianity is about, and this is one of the many reasons people leave a church.
People using ugly words to tear people down instead
of building them up.
This I know: such words are like boomerangs, they eventually return to bite the person who churns them out. Coming back in full force!
Paul writes, "We fight not against flesh and blood" (other people) however, that’s exactly what such people often do.
The best thing for us to do in order to avoid getting smacked by a boomerang is to, “Leave them to the Holy Spirit!” Because our personal feelings can sully the waters of what we truly hope to attain for them – their good.
I pray, “I can’t deal with this person Lord. I don’t have the purity of words or heart I know You have. Since You are perfect Love, and perfect Peace, and perfect Knowledge – I leave them in Your perfect hands. Amen.”
And I continue to progress with what God has for me to do.
That's it!
We need to understand that these are lost souls spouting such words because they're struggling with deep fears - strongholds. Like wounded animals they lash out. If only they would allow God to fight the battle. They need only to maintain a spirit of peace.
When you leave a person's behavior to the Holy Spirit you are in essence speaking the best over them. After having done that, you are no longer bound-up in the matter any longer.
It's done.
It's finished.
Knowing that "God the Holy Spirit" is taking care of it all.
They are now in God's Hands.
And in return, you will enjoy the "positive and productive effects of catching the boomerang!"
That's a win-win!
